In 1956, Green provided a bound on the order of Schur multiplier p-groups. This bound, given as function group, is best possible. Since then, has been refined numerous times by adding other inputs to function, such as, minimal number generators group and derived subgroup. We strengthen these bounds another input, group's nilpotency class. The specific cases class 2 maximal are discussed in grea...

We find a bound for the exponent of the Schur multiplier of a finite p-group in terms of the exponent and Engel length of the given group. It is also proved that if G is a 3-Engel group of finite exponent, then the exponent of H2(G) divides exp G. When G is a 4-Engel group of exponent e, the exponent of H2(G) divides 10e.

Given a group G and an integer n ≥ 2 we construct a new group e K(G, n). Although this construction naturally occurs in the context of finding new invariants for complex algebraic surfaces, it is related to the theory of central extensions and the Schur multiplier. A surprising application is that Abelian groups of odd order possess naturally defined covers that can be computed from a given cov...

Let $G$ be a $p$-group of nilpotency class $k$ with finite exponent $exp(G)$ and let $m=lfloorlog_pk floor$. We show that $exp(M^{(c)}(G))$ divides $exp(G)p^{m(k-1)}$, for all $cgeq1$, where $M^{(c)}(G)$ denotes the c-nilpotent multiplier of $G$. This implies that $exp( M(G))$ divides $exp(G)$, for all finite $p$-groups of class at most $p-1$. Moreover, we show that our result is an improvement...
